A 48-foot trailer will be parked outside the student union at the University of Toledo on Sept. 18 and 19 to help shed light on the trucking industry’s role in fighting human trafficking, an issue Northwest Ohio faces regularly as a major ground transportation hub.Visitors to the trailer, which will be free and open to the public from 10:45 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 3-6 p.m. both days, can expect to see artifacts from trafficking survivors, information on the trucking industry’s fight against trafficking and resources on how the public can get involved in the anti-trafficking movement.

Lyn Thompson, communications specialist for Truckers Against Trafficking, said Northwest Ohioans should be proactive in educating themselves about human trafficking.
